Class
    Foam::variableHeightFlowRateFvPatchScalarField

Description
    This boundary condition provides a phase fraction condition based on the
    local flow conditions, whereby the values are constrained to lay between
    user-specified upper and lower bounds.  The behaviour is described by:

    if alpha > upperBound:
    - apply a fixed value condition, with a uniform level of the upper bound

    if lower bound <= alpha <= upper bound:
    - apply a  zero-gradient condition

    if alpha < lowerBound:
    - apply a fixed value condition, with a uniform level of the lower bound

Usage
    \table
        Property     | Description             | Required    | Default value
        phi          | flux field name         | no          | phi
        lowerBound   | lower bound for clipping | yes        |
        upperBound   | upper bound for clipping | yes        |
    \endtable

    Example of the boundary condition specification:
    \verbatim
    <patchName>
    {
        type            variableHeightFlowRate;
        lowerBound      0.0;
        upperBound      0.9;
        value           uniform 0;
    }
    \endverbatim
